I've read a great many forum posts, both here and on the ubuntu forums and have no idea what to do. Each posts seems to assume a great deal of knowledge I simply don't have. What repo/ppa do I use? Do I have to use a different kernel? Can anyone outline a simple install method?

It's too confusing with conflicting advice and some of it is out of date. To be honest I don't have the time to try different methods, be forced to reinstall Ubuntu and try again. I would just like to know which method to use. I'm freely admitting my ignorance. I just can't trawl through countless forum posts (for example the thread you mention is 16 pages long) which talk about things like loading kernel modules, different versions of X and all that I just don't understand.

Thanks for the link to the correct ppa tormod. As rob2687 points out I completely didn't get that it was the link you were pointing me to. For some stupid reason I thought it just a link in your signature. I added the ppa and updated. glxinfo is now
